CENSURE,
Employees OF the Alice Nine Reply to
the Mining Journal.

the Mining Journal.
To the Editor of The NINER:
The last two issues OF the Butte Mining
Journal contain some reflection upon Su'
p~erintendent Hall, of the Alice mine, which
We cannot let pass unnoticed. Without
stopping to inquire into the motives o.
the Mining Journal we come right to the
points raised and declare that the articles
referred to are false in every particular. In
by any party and did not seek bis revenge
upon his men by forbidding smoking in the
mine but forbid it simply to protect the
lives Of the employees, who were liable to
lose their lives through the carelessness OF
inadvertence OF those who handle powder
with lighted pipes in their mouths.
In the second place it is charged by the
Mining Journal that we are compelled to
pay a preacher for conducting services in
a church here. This is false. We are not
compelled to do anything OF the kind. We
can pay him or not as ~e see fit. There ls
no c~ompulsion in the matter.
In the third place the hospital fund
which we have paid has been strictly ac-
counted for in the annual published state
AACAtS 4 tA- YIN oc AAtSASs NhAN
which THE MINER has copied and given to
the public. Everything has been square
and above board in this particular. The
men do not look upon their contribution
to this institution as arbitrarily levied.
They pay their assessments cheerfully be-
lieving the institution to be Of great benefit
to them.
As for the matter of the school election
Mr.. Hall said nothing to his men. Not a
dozen acted, nor knew anything about it.
This charge is foolish and without founda-
ton, in fact.
AS to the assertion concerning the play
ing OF the Alice Band at the Union Guard
sociable he had nothing to say in the mat
ter. nor did it come under his official no.
tice. The committee waited Upon Mr.. Viol,
the leader OF the band, and requested him
to play to which he consented without con-
Mr.. Hall. In conclusion we will Say
that as far as Mr.. Hall is concerned in all
these matters referred to whateveris to the
interest Of that gentleman is also to our in
.erest. We are common workers in the
nine and take a common pride in its sue
,ess. as re do in all things pertaining to its
prosperity. As to the charge against Mr..
Eva, there is nothing in it. Mr.. Eva is a
Gentleman in every respect and had moth
ng to do whatever about the notice con
smoking. If Mr.. Penrose was as
as Mr.. Eva or Hr. Hall he
would not have published what he did and
his answer would not be required.

He was the owner of between 400 and 500
acres of land. besides large herds OF cattle

and was in every respect one OF our most
substantial citizens. Everyone loved him;
everyone will mourn aud lament his loss.
The coroner, DR.. J. c. Hunter, at once held

Boulder with the news. Noticed Mr.. Girls

Cuts and Slabs Bill Parker AL

Several negro boys were bathing
yesterday evening, when Bill Parker
and Eugene Williams quarreled.
Parker was on the bank and threw
mud OH Williams. The latter came
out of the water, and as he came on
shore Parker pushed him back into
the water. Williams then came out
in great rage and looked up his
clothes, aud at the same time called
Parker all the vile names he could.
Parker stood his ground and Williams
secured his knife and went at Parker.
The first slash he made he cut the
muscle Of Parker's arm, reaching
nearly to the bone. He slashed the
arm in several places and then plunged
the blade Of the knife into the back,
under the shoulder blade, severing all
